Jeremy: I'm coming to the same conslusion--the API does not allow
traversing the blip hierarchy. Just to be clear, though, when you
suggest "storing every blip submitted" do you mean storing blip IDs or
actually storing a copy of the blip data of every blip?
What's I'd really like to be able to do is to located a specific blip
within a wave and automatically update it. If a robot has a
"reference" blip (that does not have the actual blip content), can the
API update that blip (i.e., give it new content)? If so, I could have
the robot store the blip reference and its content outside the wave.
